FRUIT CULTURE.-Southern Oregon is
bound to become the great fruit producing
section of the state. Within the past two
years over a million peach trees have been
set out in Jackson county alone. Many Of
them will produce some fruit this year. Mr.
Stewart one Of the members of the Iowa
press excursion, which visited this state two
years ago, purchased a place ont there and
has set out $500 peach trees, and Mr.. Whit.
man, another Of the same party, has set out
an extensive orchard of Bartlett pears, The

lion CT the rail with California has made the
people OF the southern portion Of the state jul
bilant and infused new life into that section.

of that city. The matter was heralded
from one end Of the State to the other.
The facts were written up in the Re
publican papers, published in a PAM
phlet form and scattered broadcast over
the State. And now, after the names
Ofgood men have been tarnished by
being arrested at the whim and caprice
of designing politicians, simply and
solely for what political capital might
be made out of it for the Republican
party, the court has sustained a de-
murrer to the indictments. 1t will he

ia ably correct, is that we should be clothed
in oil respects as our natural structure de-
mands.
On this princess or tea gown foundation a
w"man can pile all the trimming she wants

Mrs. Miller's gowns are extraordinarily short.
She tells how she was stared at in the parlors
Of fashionable hotel by some women, who
said, one to another: "Isn't her dress shorts"
On hearing this she answered pleasantly, eyes,
1t is short, but it is comfortable, and never
untidy." She recommends that ladies short
en- their skirts little by little until they at last
reach degree of brevity which shall enable
them to walk or perform any other work
with ease as men do.
Mrs. Miller is such Juno in appearance,
that many woman who would like to get
into comfortable apparel looks at her and sighs
in despair, "Oh, that woman can wear any
thing and look lovely in it," But the lady
has designs for thin women, and fat women,
and all shapes Of women.

The Son ofa Revolutionary Hero.

Isaac Paulding, son ofJohn Paulding,
who was one of the captors of Maj.
Andre, resides at Adrian, Mich, and is
IS years old. He has all the relics and
medals consequent upon that memora-
BILE event. The descendants of three
men, Paulding, Williams and Van
Vert, were granted 5000 year pension.
The Williamses are all dead; Van Vert
has one son living. John Paulding was
the father of 20 children, four of whom
are living. 1t was Paulding who,
after they had searched Andre, and
were about to release him, cried out,
zone moment more, sir; you must al
low us to remove your boots" "Would
you insult me sir" answered the in
dignant borseman, but off came the
boot and out of it dropped the thin,
smoothly folded package. The gold
watch, the purse and the fifty times as
much more offered by Andre for his
release brought out Pauldin's reply
that all the guineas the British nation
could offer wouldn't tempt them to
release him or his papers. Paulding

We are in the habit of calling this high

inventions; but in the matter Of women's
dress VIC are still slaves to the foolish Fetch
fashion. Let any one hint that women are
improperly, unhealthfully and unbeautifully
dressed, and howl goes up from the throats
of both sexes that said hinter wants to turn
all the women into men. To inveigh against
that curse of humanity, the petticoat (which
